A Direct AVR Parallel Access, or DAPA cable, is an incredibly simple and cheap programming method. You can build one very quickly for a few bucks worth of parts, but the convenience comes with a few ...

We love looking at hardcore electronics projects with a beefy microcontroller and hundreds, if not thousands, of lines of code at its center. But everyone needs to get there somehow. This tutorial ...

When it comes to AVR microcontrollers the most common programming option is In-System Programming (ISP). ISP interface is easy to use but in some scenarios it is totally unusable. The most common ...

This project completely deals with the interfacing AVR microcontroller (ATMEGA 16) with 16X2 LCD. The Atmega16 belongs to the AVR microcontroller family. This project completely deals with the ...

Atmel announced a 14pin 8bit AVR microcontroller with better programming, timing accuracy and voltage reference accuracy than it has offered before at the low-cost end of its range. Called ATtiny104, ...
